e6owl Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 This great bit of journalism just came from the star reading off of a website (https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/soccer-predictions/championship/), you can go and see what their predictions were this time last season too. They had Bristol in the playoffs and derby finishing second and were 54% confident of Birmingham getting relegated. They also gave Hilary Clinton an 80% chance of winning. Pretty naff supercomputer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 So it basically bases it's predictions on the form from the first half of the season and comes up with the final table barely changing from what it is now. What's the point of that then? It doesn't factor in the possibility of teams strengthening or being weakened in the January transfer window, or changing a manager who refused to pick his best squad... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Binky Griptite Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Who'd have thought an algorithm based upon performances in the season to date would have us finishing pretty much where we currently sit in the 25 game form table (aka The Table).
